摘要:

野生动物的肠道微生物组成受食物资源和遗传属性的影响较大, 为了解北京地区小型猫科动物肠道菌群组成特点及其影响因素, 本研究通过扩增细菌16S rRNA的V3‒V4高变区进行高通量测序, 对云蒙山、云峰山、松山、百花山4个区域的豹猫(Prionailurus bengalensis)亚种群进行肠道菌群组成分析。结果表明, 在门水平上, 豹猫的肠道优势菌群主要由厚壁菌门(相对多度52.40%)、变形菌门(25.18%)、放线菌门(9.07%)、拟杆菌门(8.17%)和梭杆菌门(4.74%)组成。在属水平上, 相对多度最高的前5个属为假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas, 13.37%)、布劳特氏菌属(Blautia, 11.20%)、梭菌属(Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1, 9.10%)、消化梭菌属(Peptoclostridium, 8.62%)、乳杆菌属(Lactobacillus, 6.08%), 共约占总多度的50%。各区域豹猫亚种群的肠道菌群β多样性不存在显著差异, 松山区域的ACE指数和Chao 1指数与云蒙山和云峰山存在显著差异。鉴于松山亚种群的遗传结构与其他区域有所不同, 而4个区域的气候类型和豹猫食物构成相似性高, 推测该亚种群的肠道菌群主要受遗传结构分化的影响, 对此还需进一步研究。

Abstract

Aims: The composition of gut microbiota of wild animals is most influenced by food types and genetic background. This study aimed to investigate gut bacterial composition of leopard cat (Prionailurus bengalensis) and its influencing factors in Beijing.
Methods: In this study, fecal samples of leopard cat collected from Yunmengshan, Yunfengshan, Songshan and Baihuashan were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing on bacterial 16S rRNA hypervariable region of V3-V4.
Results: The results showed that the dominant flora of gut bacteria of leopard cat in phyla included Firmicutes (relative abundance 52.40%), Proteobacteria (25.18%), Actinobacteria (9.07%), Bacteroidetes (8.17%), and Fusobacteria (4.74%). The top 5 genera of bacteria with the highest abundance accounted for about 50% of the total abundance, which were Pseudomonas (13.37%), Blautia (11.20%), Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 (9.10%), Peptoclostridium (8.62%), and Lactobacillus (6.08%). There was no significant difference in gut bacterial abundance and β diversity among the leopard cat subpopulations in four sampling areas, but the ACE index and Chao 1 index in Songshan subpopulation were different from those in Yunmengshan and Yunfengshan.
Conclusion: Considering there was a disparity trend in genetic structure in Songshan subpopulation, and the climate types of the four areas and food composition of the leopard cat were highly similar, we postulated that the gut bacteria of leopard cat was mainly influenced by the genetic traits for local adaptation.
